Thank you to James for sharing this very personal story. Awareness is key.
Keeping James in my prayers for a full recovery. 🙏 Wishing him a long life filled with the joy of his family and friends.
BOO!
I love how honest and graceful he is about his situation ❤ He will be in my prayers. Get well soon James❤❤❤
James' attitude about the whole thing is inspiring. I love how he acknowledges the ups and downs and the realities of coping with the diagnosis. Prayers up for your full and speedy recovery, sir.
(Plus, I just had my first colonoscopy last year at my doctor's insistence. I'm in my mid-40's. All clear so far...)
You’ve helped me, James. I just booked my first colonoscopy
❤❤❤
You’re lucky you have health insurance to cover that. In Mexico, that procedure is covered. Here in the United States it’s not we need universal healthcare in this country.
Thank you James for sharing. I will keep you in my prayers🙏🏽
He’s such a gentle, wonderful human being! ❤ You gotta kick this cancers butt and stay with us…sending love and healing
Always been a fan of James
He’s always been down to earth
Praying for his health and recovery 🙏🏼

Aww bless your heart, you have such a beautiful soul and family. We're rooting for you James 🇬🇧
Sending healing, strength to James 🙏 the best for him and his family ❤
I was diagnosed with stage 3 colorectal cancer 14 months ago. Oral chemo radiation IV chemo. Surgery 4 months ago. My margins were clear. Cancer free. It’s good to see Mr Van der beek talking about this to bring awareness. Thankyou.
Wishing him all the best ❤️🙏
Sending you love, healing and acceptance.
Keeping him and his family in prayer 🙏🏽
Jame is a wise man, the way he talks about all this WOW! He is someone we all need as a close friend, I'm praying for his full recovery.
He speaks the truth, there is a client of mine, whose husband is a doctor and her and I had just talked about it weeks ago after James Vanderbeek came out with his diagnosis about how he said that there are so many clients now younger and healthier rube are being diagnosed with this
James it is great to have someone to be your rock who is your wife who suports you through ypur cancer! You are nmaking a huge diference by saveing peoples lives!
Stay well James!
Sending you lots of love James
Praying for your healing.You have a beautiful family.
Best wishes to James on his continued road to healing and wellness! My sister was diagnosed in her 40's. Today, she's been cancer free for years and surgery saved her life. And he is right in that it's been detected in younger and younger people. My friend lost her beautiful son to colorectal cancer. I kept in touch with him, attempting to keep his spirits up. He was a beautiful kid with his whole life in front of him. He was 15 yrs old when first diagnosed and he passed away shortly after his 17th birthday. I was heartbroken in losing my Vinnie. Thank you for helping to spread awareness, James. Knowledge is power. We all get regularly screened in my family. I'm the only one who has never had any precancerous polyps found and removed. so it appears that I dodged the genetic bullet. That also means my children are not at a higher risk. Hoping his recovery is smooth and seamless.
My good friend died at 30 from colorectal cancer. A lot of Americans are uninsured or uninsured and you have to have insurance to have this screening done. I think we really need universal healthcare in this country. It would prevent a lot of unnecessary deaths.
@@HH-gv8mx Universal health care is horrible, and not what people think it is. Most health care programs, including medicare and medicaid cover them. The occult blood screening tests cost practically nothing and can often catch cancers in the early stages. That is how my sister's was caught. She was under the age of routine screening. Those tests can be done at home and sent in for analysis. Not as good as a colonoscopy but a good place to start.
Love you James, blessings to you 🙏 praying for you.
always loved him
I sure did tear up during this.
How pathetic of US healthcare that someone with decent insurance is still drowning in bills to the point he has to sell his possessions.
thank god for living in The Netherlands (me, that is)
It’s pretty ridiculous seeing he is famous and has to do this
Being a survivor of stage four bladder cancer myself. I’ve been on some form of chemo or immunotherapy over the last eight years. I would have to agree yes it is a huge financial burden, but also knowing what your options are with insurance, medication, assistance programs. Goes a long way, but also have an employer that has a self funded insurance policy has been on one of the worst experiences that I’ve actually endured right now. They authorize treatments, but then decided not to pay for anything. Still fighting the fight I’ve been in remission for a year and a half, but the constant dark cloud over my head of $1.6 million that is owed to the hospital to the insurance won’t pay still comes back into my head every day and not knowing from one day to the next if I’m gonna get that letter or phone calls saying that I owe that Due to these type of insurance companies that just won’t pay out because essentially the employer doesn’t want to pay. And there’s no legal recourse.
Thank you for sharing this story. My dad and father-in-law both passed from colon cancer.
damn, didn't know he experienced that... glad he's well!
He speaks the truth, there is a client of mine, whose husband is a doctor and her and I had just talked about it weeks ago after James Vanderbeek came out with his diagnosis about how he said that there are so many clients now younger and healthier rube are being diagnosed with this And I will definitely pay to watch the full Monty not just because I really want to see the performance, but because of what it is about. My father died several years back of MDS, which is basically a form of Pre-leukemia.
Keeping prayers to you. God is with you
Wishing the best for him.
Big thank you for what you are doing
He seems like a great dad
You look great James. Wishing you the best 🫶
Keep fighting, and doing it all through positivity IS the best way and even better when you're surrounded by your loved ones. Keeping you & many in my prayers James. Chin up, God is with you ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm diagnose with heart disease, i have just 2 years to live, i've never been this scared to die, i'm just 35, i cry everyday wishing for a miracle to happen. i don't know why im saying this here. put me in your prayers.
I'm really sorry. i've was in such situation 15 months ago. i had just 2 months to live till a friend told me about a healer who helped me. Him cured me, I don't know how him did it. but i owe him my life. His the reason i'm alive today.
That's wonderful, how do i get in touch with the healer?
Dr Ben Spell Castle is the healer I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with to set up an appointment
I looked up him name online and found his page. I emailed and made an appointment to talk with him. Thanks for the tip
@@markPwilliams I pray that you will be healed. Please be careful of anybody offering some magic pill. The person you interacted here has past comments about "spells". Please, just be cautious.
May God bless him richly with great health and support from family, friends, and fans. 💛💛💛
James, get the book called Chris Beats Cancer to read about this guy's personal story about how he overcame his cancer without chemo and made a lot of changes.
I hope he lives a while and writes a book about what his lifestyle was like up to his diagnosis, what took him to the dr, and the epiphanies and changes he made.
Have known of him, can't tell you what he's in, but he is similar age and I would read this book.
Hoping the best for him and hope he recovers 💯
Thank you James!! You rock!! :)
James, can you please share everything you’re doing to heal? Surgery, chemo, radiation, any integrative or alternative care
Geese I hope that James Van Der Been will get his treatment of the Coracle cancer. I actually have been diagnosed with Osteochromodoma Bone Cancer four years ago. I would be so sad that James Van Der Beek would died from Coracle cancer. James Van Der Beek was an great actor in Dawson's Creek. It's hard when whenever that you are diagnosed with An sort of cancer including coracle cancer and also Bone Cancer and also Breast cancer and also Ovarian Cancer
All the best too you in your recovery ✝️ God bless you and your family ✝️🕊️🇺🇸
What a sweet guy ❤
Everyone is great at giving advice how to prevent cancers. How about advice for the uninsured. What are we all supposed to do when we live in a country that cares nothing about health care? Millions are uninsured even with Obama care, medicare etc. because of government loop holes that keep us uninsured. Maybe Mr. Van Der Beek can answer that question. We need a cure for the uninsured!!
It’s becoming more and more prevalent in younger generations
His good good man on this earth 🌎 😅 we❤ you buddy keep fighting it don't ever give up
Man... what a guy...
The Cologuard home test is almost as accurate as a colonoscopy. The home test takes about 15 minutes. If you don’t want to get a colonoscopy, the home test is much better than doing nothing!
🙏🏼 🙏🏼 🙏🏼
everyone in this period of festivities remember to give to research
We love you James and is praying every single day for you. I loved Dawson's Creek and watched it. Crystal out to Jesus, he will heal you.
I hated Dawson’s Creek but I hope you’ll make it through, you are a nice guy and a great father.
My doctor is booked all thought to next year.
The only thing my family has all done is having pasta twice a week for decades. Nobody has ever gotten colon cancer, even through 80s years of age. Pasta has lots of fiber.
🙏🏽
🙏🏿🙏🏿
Well I have had yogurt most of my adult life. I also have pasta all the time which has lots of fiber. I think most people don't have either.
The best thing about being a conspiracy theorist is avoiding turbo cancer

It’s sad that he has cancer 😢. He was at the Musk party in Austin. Is he the person has portrayed himself in this interview.
He's only 47?
RFK gonna defund all research
Voting for trump turned out to be a real pain in his ass! 😂 so sad, too bad!
